Poll: Where Am I Going?

byJosh HanagarneonJanuary 28, 2010

I’m going to be on the road for the next four days, doing some research. The next couple of days will be guest posts, as I’m not sure how often I’ll have Internet access. In the meantime, take your best guess at these questions:

Where am I going?

Why am I going there?

Whoever is closest to the answer will get a song named after them. And then I’ll perform it.

No it’s not that off the wall. I’m his sister so I know where he’s going. I guess that disqualifies me. I’ll just keep my mouth shut on the off chance that anyway gets it. Here’s a clue. It starts with an S!

You are going to a small village on between Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo, in search of a 110-year-old medicine man who has brewed a concoction of psilocybin spores simmered in the blood of 73 spotted geckos, which he then mixes with an infusion of arnica, savila, and epazote, as you have learned that this is the cure to all that ails you.

There’s a song for this occasion — “I know where I’m going, and I know who’s going with me…” Then there’s “I’m on my way, I don’t know where I’m going — I’m on my way, I’m takin’ my time, but I don’t know where.”
And we mustn’t forget “I walk the unfrequented road…” “Let’s get away from it all!”
Why? Because it’s there.

You are going to Spain where you will hook up with Don Quixote to go tilting at windmills. As you will be riding horseback, computer access will be limited. This journey is to enhance the book project you are working on by tying in with a classic already loved by millions. c. 😉
